Biography

I am 73 and have had Parkinson’s disease since 2014. I started watercolour painting regularly in 2022, after my hobby of wildlife photography became too difficult. At first I painted to see if I could do it and produce something that I was pleased with. But amazingly I found that my symptoms got easier to control and I really got some quality time when painting. Recently I have started to use acrylics although my preference is still watercolours.
